Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Scaffolding tool for aiex-cli projects — JSON Schema → SQLite with AI-powered extraction

Readme

npm create aiex@latest

✨ Features

  • Interactive scaffolding — Project name, Git init, and dependency install prompts
  • Pre-configured project — Comes with .aiex/ (AI config + JSON Schema), input/ directory, and ready-to-use scripts
  • Latest aiex-cli — Scaffolded projects always depend on the latest aiex-cli version
  • Watch & Extract — Preset commands: extract:all, watch, web, schema:push, export, doctor

🚀 Getting Started

Create a new project

npm create aiex@latest

Or specify a project name directly:

npm create aiex@latest my-extraction-project

The interactive prompts will guide you through:

  1. Project name — Enter a valid npm package name
  2. Git init — Optionally initialize a Git repository
  3. Install dependencies — Automatically install packages with your detected package manager

Start extracting

cd my-extraction-project

# Place your documents (PDFs, images, text) in the input/ directory,
# then run batch extraction against a schema:
npx aiex extract --dir ./input --schema my-schema

# Or launch the web UI to design schemas and configure AI:
npx aiex web

📦 Scaffolded Project

├── .aiex/
│   ├── ai-config.json          # AI provider, models, and prompt templates

├── .gitignore
└── package.json                # Pre-configured with aiex-cli and scripts
